consumer? 1t is limited by the ranchman
that it is the dressed beef monopoly.
Interstate commerce laws have no ter
rors for these dressed beef men.
The low price of beet is their
opportunity. II they fail to keep beef
down they will quickly purchase all that
is offered for future delivery. The e
monopolists lash both sides, the producer
and the consumer alike. Oa every bullock
there is profit of $40 to the dressed
beef monopoly, and either loss or an
even thing for the producer. The cor
sumner pays the monopoly the extra $40
profit.
WHAT NEW YORKER SAYS.
NEW YORK, Aug. % -One of the prom
inent dressed beef men in this city said
OF this to-day on being shown the Chicago
dispatch; at is true in some
respects and incorrect IN others
There is no probability of any
beef famine as the market is over-sUocked
now. The immense over stock is due to
the fact that more men are raising cattle
than ever before. Three or four years
ago the price of teef was much higher
than now, and there was big rush
into cattle-Iaising. The result is
now SHOWN, there are too many
people engaged in cattle raising and the
price has been put so low that there is
no money in it. The rush now is to get
out, and in consequence they connot get
good prices. In few years the history
will be repeated, as 1 think prices will
go up again when fewer cattle are
brought TO market. 1t was only
very snort time ago that there was 8
drove of 81, 600 cattle started for market
After going some distance it was stated
that prices were so low that they turned
back, and the owners will wait for bet
ter demand. 1t is true good many of the
cattle are in poor order, but az the sane
time there is plenty OF good beef in the
market, and owners can get good prices
for it. There are plenty of cattle in the
southeast, and, although they are not il
good order, they would find market
II there was any scarcity
There is no prospect OF famine and II
the producer complains Of low prices, i
is his own fault for rushing into en- over
stocked market. The statement that the
low prices benefit only the middle mel
and the consumer gets beef at no lowe
| prices sis correct"

MALE ATTIRE FOR WOMEN.
Tho Days of the Divided Skirt Not Far Oh
London Telegraph.

Tho Days of the Divided Skirt Not Far On
London Telegraph.
The proposal Of the erratiC Nine. &c
dom of female garb, seems destined to
find many supporters, both male and fe
male. The Project OF Police has for some
time past allowed several women to Wear
male attire, but for particular reasons.
Among these is g female from Marseilles
who is blessed with hirsute appendage
on her chin which would do honor TO an
athletic sapeur, q soldier who is
popularly supposed to grow mar
velous beard. This woman was, of
course, followed by crowd of small
boys whenever she appeared in pubic.
So the bearded woman resolved to dis
card the petticoat forever and to don the
pantaloons of the stronger sex. To this
intent she made an application to the
project Of police, which was granted at
once. The other women who are allowed
to assume mans habiliments are few
female painters or copyists, who work on
high ladders in the picture galleries, and
about half dozen persons who have left
off the proper garb of their SEX for mo-
tlves connected with health.
Since Nine. DieulatoY appeared at the
Opera Comique in the evening dress of a
copurchic, M. Gregnon, the prefectof po-
lice, has recalled to his subordinate the
edict against the wearing of mems clothes
by women. But nobody has been pup
ished, and it is probably in view of this
leniency that some females continue
to sppear in public dressed as
men, while :he project is himself
continually pestered with applica
tions from women who want to walk
about Paris IN male attire like George
Sand, and who allege medical motives
which NJ. Grsgnon prudently and diplo-
maticallY processes not to understand
But if Nine. de Valsayre's proposed petit
ton to Parliament be rejected, IS it IN
doubtedly will be, that belligereEt dame
will at least have the satisfaction OF
knowing that she will have giver
another impetus to the prevailing
fashion among her country women O.
making their garments as masculine a.
possible. This year, for instance, men's
felt hats have been largely taken int
wear by the ladies, and the modiste ha
been frequently -, ndoned for the halter
In these circum ices it may be safe t,
predict that the ~ of the divided skirt
at least, are not far of.

Suspected of Being Train Robbrr.

DALLAS, Ten, Aug. 2G Mayor Conner
to-day served notice upon L. X. Baker,
superintendent of the Erie Telephone
Company, that he was violating city
ordinance in regard to the erection Of
telephone poles within the fire limit and
having, wires nearer the ground than
twenty-four feet, ard advising him to at
once comply with the law. This is re-
g.rded as a renewal of the telephone war
lately carried on between the Erie Com
pany aud the City Council which termi-
mated in recent United States court in
junction favorable to the company.
City Marshal Arnold has caused the
arrest of Jack Carson, stranger in the
city, whose mysterious disappearance
and temperatures at certain intervals
threw suspicion upon him as e party to
the numerous train robberies lately per-
petrated in the state. He was the close
companion OF another stranger, and the
two were accustomed to visit the TRIM ty
bottom near the Dsllas brewery. Yester-
day afternoon officers Swallowed the

claims that he can prove On abb in re-

An old fashioned couple were the last
passengers to leave the ferry boat Baltic
when it ran into the slip at Market street,
Camden, shortly after 9 O'Clock yesterday
morning. The mans long hair was as
white as snow and his patriarchal beard
fell in waves on the bosom Of his old
fashioned RULED shirt. The sun glittered
on his patent leather pumps that he hadn't
worn before for more than twenty
five years, and his black cutaway coat
with it's velvet collar showed that it
was cut many years ago. His stove-pipe
hat belonged to the back numbered model
of high hats that were worn by the anci-
ent swells of this city, end his cane, on
which he leaned heavily, was full of little
knobs like an Irish blackthOrn.
The woman was dressed In garb OF
Quakeress, and from beneath her old
fashioned steel-colored straight bonnet
peeped pretty silver curls. Everybody
turned and looked sitter the old folks as
they walked slowly up from the ferry.
